To clearly inform a player what game mode is set in place of a current one by way of scenery images.
In a princess mode, the scenery image of a bridge is displayed in a large princess mode domain 141 and the scenery image of a world atlas is displayed in a small gambler mode domain 142, so that a player can figure out all kinds of game modes from the scenery images of the bridge and the world atlas. In addition, when the princess mode is altered to a gambler mode, the princess mode domain 141 becomes small and the gambler mode domain 142 becomes large. Since each of the princess and gambler modes 141, 142 is altered, the alteration of the game mode itself can be informed to the player clearly, so that generally the player can clearly recognize what game mode is set in place of the current game mode by way of the scenery images.
